Hopes of a return to Red Bull for Sebastian Vettel appear to be over as the team confirmed it would not be making an offer for the four-time world champion to partner Max Verstappen next year.

According to team principal Christian Horner, an offer will not be forthcoming from the team, who instead will remain committed to its current pairing of Verstappen and Alex Albon.

“We had a brilliant time with Seb and he will forever be a part of our history,” Horner told Sky Sports F1 during practice this weekend’s race.
